I want to thank the folks at Vanilla for adding "plural" to threads with more than one new response. I mean otherwise, I would have never been able to figure out that any number greater than one means there are.....well, more than one.
For your efforts I will send each of you a big, shiny gold star you can wear proudly. Be sure to show it off to your mommy and daddy when you go home tonight.

The addition of the word "plural" really makes the yellow "4 new" really stand out. Don't know how I made it this long without it.Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!!

To be fair now it should be "1 new singular" not just "1 new".
I do appreciate my ancient member badge though. -
maybe they had to add that feature so we could get the showcase back...

I was wondering what was up. This thread did nothing to make it clear.

Just to make sure, they should add the BLINK tag. Then maybe add some animated gifs, a few more bold colors, and lots of "under construction" icons. In no time this place will be just like the glory days of Geocities.

To go from the sublime to the ridiculous, the "plural" is totally absurd. It makes no sense. If there is some inscrutable need to let us know that any number >1 means "more than one new post," why not just add the word "posts" after "new" -- e.g., "10 new posts?"Family Room, Innuos Statement streamer (Roon Core) with Morrow Audio USB cable to McIntosh MC 2700 pre with DC2 Digital Audio Module; AQ Sky XLRs to CAT 600.2 dualmono amp, Morrow Elite Speaker Cables to NOLA Baby Grand Reference Gold 3 speakers. Power source for all components: Silver Circle Audio Pure Power One with dedicated 20 amp circuit to main panel.
Exercise Room, Innuos Streamer via Cat 6 cable connection to PS Audio PerfectWave MkII DAC w/Bridge II, AQ King Cobra RCAs to Perreaux PMF3150 amp (fully restored and upgraded by Jeffrey Jackson, Precision Audio Labs), Supra Rondo 4x2.5 Speaker Cables to SDA 1Cs (Vr3 Mods Xovers and other mods.), Dreadnaught with Supra Rondo 4x2.5 interconnect cables by Vr3 Mods. Power for each component from dedicated 20 amp circuit to main panel, except Innuos Statement powered from Silver Circle Audio Pure Power One. -

I believe the mother ship is responsible for this, not Polk. I seriously doubt MP is happy with this mess.Home Theater/2 Channel:

Maybe this is one of those psychological tests that 'they' do on the internet to see just how long people who were active caring members of a forum will stay if the layout is changed to a confusing mind numbing jumble.

I'm pretty sure he's still spending some of the money he made from them... LOLdrumminman wrote: »Does MP have anything to do with Polk anymore?
Seriously, I think he bowed out several years ago, but his name still carries a lot of weight around here. Heck, I am sure that during the time when PolkFest '08 at HQ was going on he knew what direction the company would be going in, yet he still participated in the event, and spoke with a lot of enthusiasm about products he no longer had any control over. Stand-up guy all the way.
So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

Jesus, Now I feel like a 10 year old little girl. I can't help it it's just the way this forum layout makes me feel, Like my intelligence is being insulted.“The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.” ~ Mark Twain -

I stole a pair of my grandson's Spiderman Underoos to wear whenever I visit the forum. I find it helpful in fitting in with the new In-Crowd Way of Thinking and Wave of the Future Scenario.
Problem is .... I can't get these things off. And I think I hashtagged them when I was trying to take a twitter late last night.
Send help.

Anybody else coming out in this thread? Do it now and it won't be so bad cause you'll blend in. -

They musta got the hint. Been gone for a while. When I came back online the threads with multiple new posts no longer say plural.
